Coventry ‘consider’ Francisco Moura, Porto open to negotiating for right offer | OneFootball

Porto are prepared to consider offers for Francisco Moura after the left-back lost prominence last season, with Coventry tracking the 26-year-old.

No formal bid has arrived, though his agent has fielded several enquiries, the latest from Coventry, champions of the Championship and newly promoted to the Premier League. SportItalia reported that the English club consider him among their favoured options.

Moura is contracted until June 2029 and, for now, is expected to be part of the squad. Even so, he is among the players Porto could move on in this window if a suitable offer comes.

Linked to Atalanta last year, he stayed under Francesco Farioli and made 32 appearances, scoring three and assisting twice. A poor spell saw him lose his place to Zaidu, and Kiwior also filled in on the flank.

Farioli wants the left side strengthened for a title push and the Champions League, so neither Moura nor Zaidu have guaranteed roles next season.

Moura has a release clause of 60 million euros, although Porto would accept a significantly lower fee for his economic rights.
